A REAL-TIME MEASURE TO STUDY DYNAMIC INTERACTIONS WITH A VISUAL DISPLAY

摘要

As operators interrelate with complex systems, such as those that occur in flying or operating aircraft, the true performance and interaction is of a dynamic nature. However, most analyses of human interface systems employ the assumption that the display is static and does not change with time. This paper will consider a real time measure (approximate entropy) to study and evaluate human-machine interaction as events in the environment change in a dynamic sense. The experimental paradigm to evaluate the efficacy of the proposed real time measure will be borrowed from studies investigating the effects of spatio-temporal structure on cognition.
